[DMANET] Lectureship in Combinatorics (permanent position) at the University of Birmingham

The School of Mathematics at the University of Birmingham is advertising a lectureship in Combinatorics. Note that a lectureship is a permanent position which is roughly equivalent to an assistant professorship in the US system.

The applicant will join the vibrant Combinatorics research group at the University of Birmingham, which currently consists of 7 permanent staff members, as well as 5 research fellows.

The School encourages applications across the whole area of Combinatorics, interpreted broadly, e.g. also from Discrete Probability, Algorithmic Discrete Mathematics and at the interfaces with related fields (e.g. Theoretical Computer Science).

Candidates should hold a PhD (or equivalent) in Combinatorics/Discrete Mathematics or a related area. They should have an outstanding research track record as well as a commitment to high-quality teaching in mathematics.

This post is available from 1 January 2016 or thereafter (e.g. autumn 2016).
The closing date is 7 September 2015.

Informal enquiries may be addressed to Professor Daniela Kuhn (d.kuhn@bham.ac.uk) or
Professor Deryk Osthus (d.osthus@bham.ac.uk). Please note that applications sent directly to these email addresses will not be accepted.
